Khesari Lal Yadav Comments on Premanand Maharaj Spark Social Media Debate

Bhojpuri actor and singer Khesari Lal Yadav posted on social media urging people to experience Premanand Maharaj sincerely rather than using him for image building, stating that the spiritual leader is not a 'sin-washing machine.' He advised followers to genuinely follow Maharaj's teachings instead of promoting or publicizing excessively. The post went viral and attracted mixed reactions, with some users linking it to recent controversies involving Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra, who had met Premanand Maharaj amid allegations of financial fraud against the couple. Raj Kundra had offered to donate a kidney to Maharaj, which was widely criticized as a publicity stunt. Khesari’s remarks sparked debate about faith, publicity, and sincerity on social media.
